Advantech's
new PCM-9576 is a Socket 370 SBC designed with customer
needs in mind. With the ability to accept Pentium® III/Celeron
processors up to 850 MHz, supply 2, 3 or even 4* 10/100 Mbps ethernet
ports and offer optional product features (VGA/LCD interface)
that match application needs, the PCM-9576 is right at
home in any network environment. The PCM-9576 can be used
as a dual ethernet firewall device, triple ethernet firewall/DMZ
device or through its PCI expansion slot, a four ethernet port
device that allows centralized management of a Secure Virtual
Network, including firewall security and VPNs or PCI add-on cards
for encryption acceleration. Applied as a 1U rackmount component
or in a stand-alone device, the PCM-9576 has the processing
power and reliability to handle your mission critical, high availability
application, the flexibility and size to go where you need it
and feature options that adhere to tight budget demands.
Meeting
Vertical Market Needs
Advantech's
Embedded Computing Group prides itself on being able to meet vertical
market users' needs. The PCM-9576 is of course a powerful and
compact, full featured stand-alone (5.75" x 8") SBC
that can be used in a multitude of embedded applications. However,
certain features make it attractive for network administration:
1) Optional
VGA/LCD controller saves on cost.
VGA/LCD
is unnecessary for many network applications. With the available
COM port, administrators can simply connect a PC (console) for
configuration. If you don't need it, don't pay for it.
However, if you do need it, there is a powerful SMI Lnyx 721
(or 712) controller available.
2) Scalable
ethernet
Pay for
the ethernet you need. Order dual or triple Intel® 10/100
Mbps 82559ER controllers. Or add another PCI ethernet card.
3) PCI
expansion slot
Once again,
add an additional high speed ethernet port or cost
effective PCI add-on card. There is even a PC/104 connector
for flexible ISA expansion when needed.
4) GPIO
support
Supports
3 general purpose output controls
